I use Claude and ChatGPT daily and I have my own list in a spreadsheet that I keep an eye on because things are changing rapidly. I am going to try a few more now based on your reviews - in particular, IO 💛🙌
Finally, I am part of a pretty large engineering and product group, and we are discussing these solutions constantly and reviewing. I am working on my own product based on AI on the side as well as writing books and music videos and content trying these solutions daily. It’s a lot of fun!
As someone who often has to read a lot of scientific articles to get a grasp of the current state of the art, I find notebook LM extremely useful. Not so much for the podcast, but for its ability to give me a holistic summary of several articles and provide me with answers based on the articles content. I look forward to what they’ll do next with this tool!
They're all front runners among other competitors when compared like for like. I find that once a feature is released, it's available for the other's in the field.
I take my hat off to Perplexity, they're innovative. I think they're feature rich & miles from the next competitor in the space.
I have the same S row, however, I would move Granola up to that row. It gets better everyday. And it’s a lfesaver. No more scrambling to take notes or half-listening during meetings— no awkward meeting bots required. Then, like magic, it cleans up the chaos and turns it into polished summaries, action items, and even follow-up emails. It’s become my secret weapon for staying on top of things. I just show up, focus on the conversation, and let Granola handle the rest. If you’re still manually jotting down notes, you’re living in the past. This thing is a game-changer.
Great list; thanks a lot. Concerning Claude voice capabilities: I love the recording button. Several times during a walk in the format I talk to the system about something I am struggling with and after ten minutes he makes a transcript and a structured overviel including suggestions etcetera
Thanks for this, Peter, I’m spending a lot of time learning how to leverage AI to speed up my workflow, this piece highlights a few new tools.
Do you have a similar post that highlights LM Studio, or anything on navigating Hugging Face? It’s quite painful for a non-coder to decipher many of the open-source AI models!
I appreciate the reverse-ordering for the article. There was no way I would make it to D level if it was at the end of the page lol.
haha yeah I had to start with some rants first
I feel this list.

Dump and avoid all AI shit.
It’s not vital to creative individuals and the process they depend on with their imagination.
Plus it’s comprised of stolen copyrighted data. A scourge.
It is crazy how much can get accomplished with so many great AI tool offers. This list saved me hours of research.
Thank you for the share, Peter!
Cursor belong sin S tier
perplexity belongs in A tier

That covers some great AI tools Peter. 👏

What a great analysis. Thank you so much!

Shouldn't they all just go on the bin?

Great list, but found Riverside insanely buggy to use so had to revert to streamyard
Yes to Perplexity for every day info queries.
Yes to Bolt for interactive concepting > simple code solutions.
